We present a method to construct inverse scattering problems for integrable nonlinear evolution equations in the two-spatial dimension. The temporal component is the adjoint of the linearized equation and the spatial component is a partial differential equation with respect to the spatial variables. Although this idea has been known for the one-spatial dimension for some time, it is the first time that this method is presented for the case of the higher-spatial dimension. We present this method in detail for the Veselov-Novikov equation and the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation.

The inverse scattering method can be used to solve the initial value problem for various nonlinear evolution equations of physical importance. Here an extensive class of equations for which the technique is available is delimited.
